Intro

Wind & Kite started working with Mad4Tools in January 2022, and has continued to build on the excellent, honest, stable working relationship with the senior management team ever since. 

In January 2024, Wind & Kite worked with Mad4Tools to completely rebuild and refresh the entire front end using Hyvä themes, intending to reduce complexity and achieve maximum performance, resulting in better user experience, higher conversion rates, and higher SEO rankings.

Problem

Mad4Tools previously had a Magento website, with a long-standing regular customer base, selling both to commercial business customers and the “everyday” DIY-er, with a large range of products available on their website. 

However, they had encountered several issues with their site, especially with the slow loading times on their site, as well as experiencing issues with certain key functionalities with their Magento theme. The website had previously been built bespoke by another agency, and due to its age and build method, Wind & Kite were initially fixing these front-end issues, which resulted in high costs for Mad4Tools. 

Therefore, to prevent Mad4Tools from having continued rising costs with a problematic website, Wind & Kite suggested a full Hyvä rebuild to reduce long-term costs, with the ability to dramatically improve speed as well as provide a fully functioning site with reduced issues.  Due to the adaptivity of Hyvä, Wind & Kite were able to work together with Mad4Tools to create a fully functional, bespoke and simplified website in just 3 weeks of development time.

Solution & Results

Before Mad4Tool’s new Hyvä build, it was discovered that 100% of the mobile pages tested by Wind & Kite were failing Google’s Core Web Vitals Assessments and that 33% of those were also failing on Desktop. 

In the 28 days since Mad4Tools went live with their Hyvä rebuild, Wind & Kite have retested these same pages on Google’s Core Web Vitals and have seen a marked improvement across the board, with previously failed pages now passing on Core Web Vitals.

Following the Hyvä build Mad4Tools have had their loading times dramatically improved site-wide. Below are some of the impressive improvements that Mad4Tools has seen since moving to Hyvä:
